On another note, the WNBA needs to lower the rim to get some excitement going.
Wishful thinking, but not gonna happen.
It's not the WNBA you would have to consider, but FIBA, WCBB, HS, etc. Hell, in college the girls play on the same height and it's still 10x more exciting than the WNBA.
Plus, they're too prideful to accept that. Shaq suggested it to Candace Parker not too long ago and got shut down.
That's bad PR waiting to happen. The NBA would be called sexist, misogynistic, etc. It would've worked if the rim was 8-9 feet from jump, but lowering it now would be a step back in their eyes. Besides, they have bigger issues to tackle than the rim.
